Description

The Curtiss-Wright / Synergy Microsystems Power Hawk 900 Series system allows the operator to initialize the system and perform certain diagnostic procedures. The Power Hawk Series 900 platform uses two monitor ROM programs called STAR(Self Test And Run) and ASTRix (Advanced Self Test Reboot Initialize eXecute) that provide basic board initialization, configuration and diagnostic capability. The STAR utility will execute whenever the system is powered up or reset. STAR and ASTRix are used to configure the basic system as well as loading the initial boot image from distribution media. The Power Hawk 900 Series system normally begins execution in the STAR program that is located in flash memory. STAR/ASTRix can be configured to automatically boot the PowerHawk 900 Series system console off of the appropriate boot media. The console is provided in a "loadable" format at the front of bootable media. TheSTAR/ASTRix internal ROM bootstrap code reads the console into RAM, where it then relocates itself to higher memory locations and begins execution.
